A Brief Overview Of Informational Visualization

By Diane Williams


Individuals working in the field of abstract data and data analysis often have to review a cumbersome amount of data at one time. Often known as informational visualization, the process is basically to provide multiple amounts of data at a time whether through flow charts, columns or tables. As the data includes non-numerical and numerical data, it can often be difficult to display the information in ways which are easy to read.

While a rather new field, information visualization has emerged from a number of pre-existing areas. For example, business methods, psychology, visual design, graphics, computer science, human computer interaction have all contributed to this new area of technology. Most believe the advances in documentation analysis and technology will only grow in the future.

Data analysis and this type visualization were developed in a way which allows users to view a great deal of information at one time. Similar to graphs and flow charts, the application allows an individuals to convey information to others, often on one sheet of paper. Once known as data analysis, the application is indispensable when it comes trouble-shooting and solving problems.

The basic aspect of data analysis includes machine learning, data mining, plotting, tree maps, scatter plots, all of which are a part of visualization. While this is the case, this new aspect of data analysis also allows for the discovery of unstructured insights which are only limited by human creativity, imagination and understanding. As such, while there have been a number of upgrades to the application, human knowledge and understanding are still integral to the overall success of the application.

While most companies still require a college education, there are others whom will exchange education for experience. In most cases, those doing so often offer new employees the opportunity for a number of opportunities and workshops which can provide a great deal of understanding in regards to this ever growing field. In others, companies will offer to provide all or part of the tuition for those interesting in starting or completing work towards an Associates or Bachelors degree.

The history of the process dates back several decades. For, in the most basic form, it referred to computer graphics. Whereas, the process is now associated with many other areas, including the scientific community. If not for sound enhancement and graphic chips, this may have never been the case. For creating graphics before the development and distribution of video and sound cards was far more difficult than in the present moment.

Computer graphics and data analysis have now become a necessity in not only the scientific field but in many others. In fact, there are now a number of conventions and conferences which have workshops, panels, career opportunities and forums related solely to data analysis. Whereas, data analysis, graphic development and design have become a mainstay in the field of Internet Technology.

Once having been accepted into the scientific field, the application made its way into others such as data mining, digital libraries, information graphics, market studies, product control, crime mapping and policy modeling. As a result, the application and associated processes have already made a huge impression when it comes to Internet Technology.
